Foster Wallace

Jessica P sent me an email letting me know that one of my favorite writers, David Foster Wallace, passed away over the weekend. Here is a obit from Salon.com that Jessica sent and that I thought was pretty good.

Here's a link to a past Kenny K link where I recommended his Federer article, probably the best sports article I've ever read.

His John McCain article for Rolling Stone during the 2000 primary was the best political essay I've ever read. It intertwined politics and asked many coming of age questions of people in our generation. As I said in my Twitter, it was perfect.

Please read it.

RIP DFW.
